28 July 2018
At an apartment lives Samuel Davila :Manuel Lozano, his older sister , Marina :Veronica Sanchez , and their grandfather , Fernando Fernan Gomez . Samuel has agarophobia and his sister hires psychologists to cure him. The lastest results to be Gabriel , Daniel Guzman , a likeable psychologist who had long time ago a girlfriend , leaving him for a whale psychologist , nowadays , she calls him every night to ask for his advice to be pregnant and about her marriage .

This is a pretty good film though mostly claustrophobic , being mainly set at an old stately home and a few scenarios .The picture displays an optimist and sensitive message with sympathetic roles and charming situations . As Gabriel well played by Daniel Guzman plays a always glad psychologist accostumed to live his existence with the assumption that happiness is for the others and no for himself , as he is really ingenuous because knows nothing better in his life . Excellent Manuel Lozano as the recluded teen who suffers severe agarophobia and designs plots to repele a long line of psychologists who come to cure him.Veronica Sanchez performs marvelously the good sister who sacrifices herself for her small family . Special mention for the always great Fernando Fernan Gomez as the understanding and honest grandfather who was a famous writer.

The movie contains a colorful cinematography , usually in half-light from the apartment , by David Carretero, being shot in A Coruña , Galicia. Carrereto is a profesional cameraman with national and international successes including titles as Utopia , Infierno , The nun, Los Dalton contra Lucky Luke .Moving and stirring musical score by Cesar Benito who has composed nice soundtracks as Savaged , Cielito Lindo , Tv series as Tiempo entre costuras ,Los protegidos , Sonata del silencio , La chica de ayer.The film being well produced by Julio Fernandez , Carlos Fernandez from Filmax Productions.The motion picture was compellingly directed by Gustavo Ron.He is a fine craftsman who has directed a few films and TV series as May Bakery in Brooklyn , Vivir para siempre or Way to live forever and Velvet colection series . Rating : 6.5/10 , worthwhile seeing .
